You're headed for Heaven
The sweet old hereafter
And I've got one foot in the door
But before I can fly up
I've loose ends to tie up right here
In the old therebefore
I'll be along
Doctor Gaul she won
Finished my song
When I've shut down the band
Let her out
Played out my hand
Why aren't they attacking her
Paid all my debts
Have no regrets
Must be the singing
Right here it's calming them
In the old therebefore
She can't sing forever
I'll catch you up when I've emptied my cup
When I've worn out my friends
When I've burned out both ends
When I've cried all my tears
When I've conquered my fears right here
In the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore
I'll bring the news when I've danced off my shoes
When my body's closed down
When my boat's run aground
When I've tallied the score
And I'm flat on the floor right here
In the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore
When I'm pure like a dove
When I've learned how to love
Right here in the old therebefore
When nothing is left anymore
